it is clear that from the eu 27 side, as well as the european parliament, they said it could be possible. in the case of member state government they said only that it should be time—limited. so there is clearly willingness for that. the question is is two years long enough? it would be the status quo, so enough? it would be the status quo, so the uk staying in the single market and the customs union and if that were the case and at least until march 2021, trade would continue as it is today. the question is what happens after march 2021, and in the period until a new trade relationship has been agreed. it is unlikely that, if you were to start trade negotiations after the december council, early next year, that at that point until march 2021, it may not be enough time to agree the future relationship. in many respects you may actually be longer transition period, and i'm not sure that within theresa may's government she has support for that. thank you very much indeed. just to say, at that discussion in downing street, we have mentioned those attending but also brexit secretary, david

parliament's brexit negotiator guy verhofstadt, were warning that talks still remain very deadlocked. meanwhile, the prominent brexiteer priti patel herself, sacked from the cabinet, sits as a potentially vocal critic on the backbenches. will that upset the delicate balance of hard and soft brexit in the cabinet? are we paralysed by a divided government that can't muster a majority for either brexit, soft or hard, let alone do anything else? well, lots to talk about. first, here's nick watt on the day of drama. his film contains flash photography. when you are weak and vulnerable, life can be, well, downright cruel. out of the blue, you can be ensnared in a moment. theresa may has thankfully not been eaten for dinner on a remote island. but downing street could be forgiven for wondering where the next danger is lurking.

in 2015 alone, conservative members of the european parliament voted against five reports to introduce methods of fighting tax avoidance and evasion. and last week hmrc admitted that multinational companies avoid paying 5.8 billion taxes in 2016. and despite this, hmrc is currently cutting another 8,000 staff. so can the prime minister assure the house that in the upcoming budget, instead of more cuts to hmrc, they'll get more resources to tackle the scourge of aggressive tax avoidance and evasion. >> i have reassured the right honorable gentleman that hmrc is acting, has been acting since this conservative party came into government in 2010 and will continue to act. but of course the right honorable gentleman in asking these questions might want to reflect on why it was before the dissolution of parliament earlier this year, it was the labor party that stopped and refused to support anti-tax avoidance and evasion measures brought forth by this government. his party stopped it. >> mr. speaker, my question was why conservative mps opposed what labor was proposing yesterday. so mr. speak
